Question regarding travelling abroad was created by John Henry
Hi,
For various reasons I am in receipt of ESA and PIP, I have been invited to go on holiday abroad. My question is:
How long can I go abroad for whilst I am in receipt of ESA and PIP. I believe I have just been taken off income based ESA and with PIP I am on the lowest amount you get which does not include mobility.

It's four weeks for ESA and 13 for PIP, you need to let the DWP know if you will not be at home for any protracted period.

If I am on both ESA and PIP then does it default to four weeks on the ESA overall?

Yes that would be the case.
